A great ending to the day!

Yesterday that is. My grandson asked to spend the night with us and after watching the movie "Cars", the three of us put on "A Christmas Story" and watched that movie. It's always a good movie. But, more importantly, it was nice for the three of us to just sit back, relax, and laugh together. Certainly a blessing that I could not have necessarily foreseen a year ago.

Today we went to see my mother-in-law and went out to lunch. Most places were rather empty, or closed, because it was the day after Thanksgiving. We ended up at a Mexican restaurant as a change of pace - had my first margarita since at least January. How limes can taste so good!!!

For our evening's entertainment, we watch a couple of movies and that was the culmination of another quiet day.

I'm feeling great and for the next month, in particular, we'll do our best to keep it that way. Hopefully, by the turn of the year we will see a downturn with all this flu that's going around and I will be able to edge closer to a normal life.

I can hardly wait...
